Product Information

Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Literature - Basics, University of Limerick, language: English, abstract: This thesis aims to critically analyze the intertextual references in the book "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer, to the transcendentalist movement which occurred in in 19th century America.

It describes the intricate relationship and interconnectedness which exists betweenworks of literature with the general a
